You have found two things that have been bugging me for a while: the
hard register thingy, and the fact that DECL_ASSEMBLER_NAME is set to
DECL_NAME, rather than NULL, when it is not really being used.

Your patch should be fine (it would be great if you could file a bug
about the C++ problem).

Ideally, DECL_ASSEMBLER_NAME would be NULL for all cases where we
don't need a name.
